Bike ride: Oakwood - Hampstead Heath - Shepherds' Bush - Hanger Hill - Wembley Hill - Barn Hill - Wakemans Hill - Oakwood. | Mark Jackson | 06/06/2020 |
Hadn't realised there were 2 91m high points in Brent so felt compelled to return to the Borough. Nice to arrive to see the two competing street signs either side of the Top - Summit Avenue or Mount View Road! | pclyndes | 31/05/2020 |
Cycled from Battersea, 37km round trip. Roads terrible in Brent... | Rockdoctor | 09/05/2020 |
Socially distancing London walk. | atreides7887 | 26/04/2020 |
5/11. Somewhere around number 129. | Bramley | 21/01/2020 |
From the bus stop on Edgware Road, just south of the junction with Wakemans Hill Avenue, west up the Avenue to the pavement outside No. 129 | Mariana Trench | 14/09/2019 |
Run from Wembley Hill HP via Barn Hill HP and Fryent Country Pk pt.62m. Another hill I'm surprised I'd never been to before, esp. as I sometimes used to run to Roe Green/ Salmon Lane from Burnt Oak where I lived for 7 yrs! As with all the 7 Tumps today, views in many directions restricted by buildings, trees etc. | pwheeler | 01/08/2019 |
Parked at N. end of Summit Avenue (space for 3 or 4 cars before No.1) - Left out of Summit Avenue & about 50yd up to high point which appears to be by manhole covers on junction with Mount View Road. (S) | gerrybowes | 28/07/2019 |

HP on S side of residential street near 129 Wakeman's Hill Road and junction with Mount View Road NW9. Although of itself unremarkable, the whole day's walk through a diverse array of Wembley and Harrow streets and open spaces was different and interesting. | Denise | 17/01/2019 |
Steepest ascent of the day, up road from the W. Summit crossed by road, high point pavement on S side - just. | RichardM | 17/01/2019 |

Forgettable from a view perspective but always interesting to get to parts of London you wouldn't otherwise visit. | jedthehumanoid | 31/10/2018 |
From Colindale tube station to Wembley Park 
Over this obvious top and Barn Hill | ChinnockC | 20/10/2018 |
Drive, park and bag. | Campbell Singer | 01/07/2018 |
Walked from Kingsbury St and then onto Barnet Fc. Felt like a Lakes walk - very windy and absolutely throwing it down. | Andrew Pearson | 30/03/2018 |

An early morning walk from Kingsbury tube along the margins of Roe Green Park, up Highfield Road - passing the architectural fantasia of Buck lane -, avoiding traffic to reach the summit manhole cover (Rob: the time is right for a most prominent manhole covers peak list...) and on to Summit Avenue for the sake of propriety before returning via Buck Lane. | Nick Down1 | 18/05/2017 |

32.6km bike ride on the Brompton sadly in the pouring rain! Kings Cross to Madia Vale then canal towpath all the way out and followed the cycling routes. Three hills bagged: Wembley Hill, Barn Hill and this one. Thumping it down by the time I reached Wakemans Hill Avneue so cycled back fast down the A5 and recovered with hot chocolate! | Fionalevey | 29/01/2017 |

Walked up from Kingsbury station Good views back across to Harrow-on-the-Hill from Highfield Avenue. An obvious hill which is a change. | Sixtyplus | 06/09/2016 |
Parked in nearby Rydal Gardens, walked up from the East with bike to summit, either road by manhole covers or pavement on south side, then free wheeled back down to main road and cycled back to car for drive to Wembley Hill. | pdantic | 30/08/2016 |
